CONTINUING THE LEGACY OF CAMERON BEAN
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us”
Cameron was a son, brother, and friend who was tragically taken from us on September 21, 2015. On the track, he was an accomplished athlete. Off the track, Cameron was engaging, loving, and larger than life. He was a young man defined by his faith and invested in his family, friends, and those who shared his passion for running. Cameron was poised and eager to affect the Chattanooga area endurance community in a big way and we strive to continue his legacy.
